The two-session sale begins with a live auction on March 22, a day before the show kicks off in Mississauga.

“As we roll into our third ‘Premier Auction’ event at the National Postage Stamp and Coin Show, we are pleased to say the auction is growing in both popularity and in size with over 1,600 lots up for sale,” said Kirk Parsons, co-owner of the Kitchener, Ont.-based auction house.

“We have received the best to-date response from consignors across Canada and the U.S., and this auction will have many highlights throughout all denominations and categories.”

HIGHLIGHTS

The auction will highlight some finest-known examples, some “exceptionally rare items that don’t hit the market often” and “the usual assortment of great coins, banknotes and stamps for all collectors needs and budgets,” said Parsons.

Specifically, bidders can expect strong paper money and Canadian decimal sections consisting of most key-date issues and “many better varieties that are highly sought after.”
